"A wonderful resource that will help sharpen the reading and hearing of scripture in the assembly. The introductory materials offer valuable guidance for those who read the scriptures in public. By helping congregations better understand the Bible passages read in worship, this book will help build up communities of faith steeped in the living Word of God." --Ruth Meyers, Hodges Haynes Professor of Liturgics, Church Divinity School of the Pacific
"Learned without intrusiveness, pastoral without condescension, these beautifully concise introductions provide everything a congregation needs for a more thoughtful hearing and understanding of scripture." --Jack Miles, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of God: A Biography, and lay reader
"With accessible, clear and gracious language, each of the readings of the ecumenical Sunday lectionary is introduced here. As a focus for preparatory Bible study, as printed texts for the assembly, or even as a few simple words spoken before each of the readings, these introductions awaken our ears and hearts once again to the primary texts of the Christian faith." --Gordon W. Lathrop, Professor of Liturgics Emeritus, Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia
